Chapter 148: Cheated

Genesis’ was looking unhappy and she had sobbed. She glanced at the dinning and didn’t wait another minute as she went upstairs straight into Richard’s bedroom.

Jane placed her hand on her chest. She glanced at Adrian Delmark and he was speechless as well. Was Richard with Tessa?

“Adrian, was it Tessa? Did Richard spend the night with Tessa?” Jane asked and Adrian turned to glance at her. There’s going to be a tussle that morning.

Genesis pushed the door open and saw Richard and Tessa sleeping peacefully. The quilt was covering him partially, letting Genesis see that he was stark naked under the quilt.

Richard’s hand was crossed over Tessa and the latter placed her head on his torso. A usual scene of two lovers who fell asleep after love making.

Tessa’s clothes were on the floor, down to her panties. Her Bra was thrown in a corner and without being told, what happened was already spelled out.

“Richard!!”Genesis screamed out his name. She wanted to sob, but she couldn’t. She was breathing hard, just staring at them.

Richard heard his name and he opened his eyes slowly. His eyes were blurry at first but he glanced at the person towering over him and saw it’s Genesis.

His eyes immediately opened wide. He saw her towering over him with fury and hostility. He glanced at his torso and saw another woman lying on his torso.

He immediately shoved her aside and lifted the quilt to see himself naked. He glanced at his side again and it was Tessa, who opened her eyes wearily.

Richard glanced at Genesis and saw her tears. What happened to him, who did he have sex with? He raised the quilt again and knew he had made love.

He glanced at Genesis with a remorseful stare. What has he done? He cheated on her with Tessa?

He got out of bed in his nudity and picked his slacks, putting it on quickly and followed up with his night robe.

Tessa sat up and wrapped the quilt over her body. She glanced at Genesis with a grin. Done. She got what she wanted and there’s nothing Genesis can do about it.

Downstairs, Arianna dashed into the sitting room, dressed in a short plain dress and her hair a little messy. An indication that she just got out of bed.

“Where is Richard?” She asked, not a word of hello to her parents. She looked more furious than Genesis that walked in a few minutes ago.

“What exactly is going on, daughter!” Jane asked. She doesn’t want to imagine the shit that Richard had caused that morning.

“How can Richard hurt my friend this way? He slept with Tessa and the slut recorded their love making and the moans of ecstasy, sending it to Genesis. Where is he?” Arianna bellowed.

Richard heard Arianna’s voice. Gosh! What has he done? His sister was going to be furious with him.

“What?” Jane exclaimed.

“What did you say, Arianna?” Adrian Delmark asked. Who does that? Is it a porn, that she would do that and send it to Richard’s girlfriend?

Jane just went up stairs. Arianna followed and Adrian Delmark behind. Jane pushed the door open and saw Richard standing, speechless and just staring at Genesis with a remorseful stare.

“Gene” Arianna said and went to hold her friend. She saw that the three were just staring at each other. Richard glanced at Tessa, still on the bed and then at Genesis.

“Genesis” That’s all Richard could say. He doesn’t know what else to say. His parents and sister were glaring at him in rage.

But he doesn’t mind how they gazed at him. But Genesis, is in shock. He knew her inability to say a word after calling his name was as a result of shock.

Tessa just looked away. She wrapped the quilt around her body more intently, avoiding to meet the Senator and his wife’s gaze.

“You…” Genesis tried to talk, the words choked her. “.. Why did…you..” she was breathing hard like an asthmatic patient who got an attack.

“How…ca.. n…you.. do this…” Genesis couldn’t say anything again. She pointed at Tessa and then…she was breathing hard, her tears running down her cheeks.

“Calm down Gene, please calm yourself. I know you can’t take it. But please, try to calm yourself” Arianna persuaded, holding her friend close to herself and bringing her to sit on the sofa.

Richard just glared at her with moist eyes. He didn’t know she was not the one. He saw her walk into the room last night and he pulled her to himself, kissing her.

He thought they had made up. He only saw her and not Tessa. How can he go ahead and have sex with Tessa knowing well that she’s not his girlfriend anymore.

He was drunk and only hallucinated. He didn’t know she was not the one. But how can he explain it to anyone now? Who will be interested in his story in this tense situation?

“I warned you Richard, not to break her heart. I told you I will not forgive you if you do. And you really did. How can you do this to Genesis?

Can’t someone have fate in love anymore? Is it a scam, is love a fairytale? Can’t a woman love a man and get loved in return? How can this be happening?

She loved you Richard? If you had told her that you are in love with someone else or that you are still dating this bitch in your heart, maybe she wouldn’t have fallen in love with you.

Why did you do this, Richard? You are clear enough that you prefer your ex to my friend. But why don’t you break off from her honourably, why did you cheat?

Looks like you’ve been cheating on her for a long time. Perhaps before going to Spain. You’ve been drilling this bitch at night and stand before Genesis in the morning as if nothing happened.

Why do I find more reasons to get distant from you? If I say I hate you, maybe it’s the truth. I will leave Genesis to make her decision but you should know that whatever decision she takes, I will stand by her” Arianna declared.

“Let’s go Genesis” Arianna raised her off the sofa. Her eyes were red. She stood up and declared “It’s over, Richard, it’s over between us”

“Please Genesis” Richard pleaded and wanted to hold her when Arianna said “You heard her, right? If you dare to touch her, I will slap you hard” she warned.

Richard stayed back.
